Nope, it's in less than a month now. And my feet are looking forward to it! I learned the first time--when your feet aren't happy, even if it's just a gnawing ache rather than actual pain, it makes all the rest of you grumpy.
Now quit trying to change the subject, Mr. Ricardo. (hm, we need a stern finger-pointing smiley) You stay off that scooter 'til the dr says it's ok. Which I know gets harder the better you feel. But don't you do it. Really, hon. It puts far more stress on those bones than just walking around does. Take advantage of being the invalid for a bit. Lavish in everyone's care. You deserve some lavishing, esp after this second time. My poor ricardo. If I was there, I'd bring you some toffee brownies.

Not again! Might consider waiting a bit longer before riding while this is healing up. I just picked up some level 3 riding jeans with Kevlar yesterday along with a replacement helmet and will be starting the repairs on my bike tomorrow however I waited 60 days for the knee to heal before riding again and will not ride without ATGATT now. At my age things don't heal as fast as they used to so I can't afford to be hasty. Get back in the saddle however please wait long enough to be fully healed up first. Just for curiosities sake where were you in the lane as you were coming up on this. You gotta stay out of the dead zones to limit exposure to these types of events. A dash cam may be a consideration too since they many times will catch the plate number or enough info to track down the responsible party. I just picked up a couple and started using one in the Spider and have it looping on a 32 gig memory card. I usually ride next to the lane division line, the cager didn't look for incoming traffic when he made the turn, if I where driving a truck he would be dead or seriously injured.  Good you weren't hidden hugging the curb. Be careful and consider waiting to heal up longer this time so things will knit more fully. The dash cam is something I am going to start using even on the bike and it sounds like you could have used one in tracking the person who caused all this. |

Very sorry about the crash. You have certainly received more than your share of bad luck this year. Maybe its time to load up that scoot with lights like some of the vespa guys.  |

Just think of all the songs you'll learn lying in bed! Keep the axes close by.

Bad things come in pairs to me, this year my house got broken in by burglars twice, and now I crash twice as well; wonder if I play lottery would win twice? Lol. |
